‘WN MORRIS CASE =

: Ballistics Exports Study Gun

“Found With Body of Author’s Friend.

By United Press LOS ANGELES, Nov. 17.—Ballistic experts today examined the revolver found in the hands of Reid Russell when his body was discovered on a lawn swing at the home of Gouveneur Morris, novelist. On

course of the puzzling case. Russell's death .first was recorded as suicide. Today, for the first’ time, “investigators admitted the possibility of murder. Should the gun examination show it had not been fired the latter theory will be strengthened, for, according to Capt. Clyde Plummer of the district attorney's office, such’ evidence would indicate the gun was placed in Russell's hands after death in an effort to indicate suicide. Russell, a young car salesman, was a friend of Mr. and Mrs. Morris and had visited at their home a few hours before his death. Mr. Morris and his wife told the district attorney he had talked of suicide. Points which could be used to support a theory that the salesman, had been slain were listed by Capt. Plummer as:

in the lawn swing where his body was found.

Russell had a gun in his car and placed it in his dead hands. 3. No cartridge from the .32 aue
